Thanks, that worked better. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5202335932874752/ is already completed.
https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5095174972112896/ is already completed. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5752323406561280/ makes no sense; there was no general agreement by any of the maintainers to use this tool, and if there was, it should be attached to the specific project not Sugar Labs in general. Perhaps something for the oversight board rather than a GCI student. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5643490613002240/ is already assigned (to me), the cause is well understood, and anyway the changes likely to be done aren't to configure.ac file. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5174561855766528/ seems to be a duplicate of https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5990706573737984/ with the latter being better defined. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5416369386946560/ makes no sense because the activity does not support collaboration, and so there's no way to test if the task was completed properly. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5756584903311360/ makes no sense; Pippy is a Fructose activity therefore it is always installed with Sugar. -- Some of the tasks I've changed; https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/6283229045194752/ was not well explained; fixed. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5663050028285952/ suggested changing the style and appearance of Pippy documentation, but as this is part of the Help activity it can't be done that way; fixed. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5572284450865152/ failed to mention our trademarks and referred to Sugar Labs by the wrong name, and didn't have enough instances; fixed. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/6240060362457088/ also failed to mention the trademark concerns; fixed. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5667733656567808/ can't be done until a Port to GTK 3 is completed, so changed instance count to zero. https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5662089583001600/ lesson plans go in the Help activity. -- Tasks suggested; - complete a code review or test on someone else's pull request, with reference to our contribution guide section for reviewers, - further work on Jappy, or Develop, rather than only Pippy, On Sun, Nov 24, 2019 at 01:17:16PM +0100, Chihurumnaya Ibiam wrote: > Hi James, > > The 63 you're seeing might be the tasks you've been assigned to, you can > uncheck the "My task" button below the tasks page to see all tasks. > > Can you point out the tasks that make no sense or are for already completed > work? > > On Sun, Nov 24, 2019, 10:17 AM James Cameron <[1]qu...@laptop.org> wrote: > > I'll have to take your word for it on "almost 200", as the dashboard > only shows me 63. > > For those I can see, quality of the tasks is a problem. > > Several of them make no sense or are for already completed work. > > Yet all I can do is change the description or the instance count.
